The Stand-In – Caitlin Rose (ATO Records)

Nashville-based singer/songwriter Caitlin Rose is fantastic on her sophomore album. The country influence is heavy, sometimes too much for my taste, and the songs are catchy and radio-friendly. Her voice is incredibly smooth, almost jazzy and old-timey. Don’t try to resist. This one grows on you.

Final Word: Though I’m not a fan of country music, Caitlin Rose is a true Nashville talent.
